Have you ever read TripAdvisor reviews for entertainment?
I hadn’t, until this week. Struggling for an idea for the fifth and final round of this quiz, a friend suggested going through some bad TripAdvisor reviews for significant tourist attractions and landmarks and let me tell you, it’s a very entertaining way to pass time.
There’s nothing Brits do quite as well as complaining about other people’s inability to queue, and various inconveniences while on holiday, like the length of the queue for a ride, the length of the queue in a gift shop. The waiting time for a restaurant. Basically, we love and hate queueing for anything and everything and will actually take to the internet to complain about it. What a pathetic nation we are.
Enjoy the quiz!
